The Big Cleanup has begun
There are still thousands of people in a tough situation, so most of our resources are directed to helping those parts of our District. But for those who are able to go about things as normal, we're starting to plan the next phase.
The Big Clean Up

The Civil Defence priority in our Region is to restore power, water and roadways. There might be a delay before we can get on to cleaning up the mess in parks and on road-edges.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
